Senior Project Proposal

_ Dear Mrs. Dunbar and Senior Project Committee:

Cosmetology sounds very interesting to me and I would like to learn more about it. Although I know very little about cosmetology I chose this subject because my aunt is a cosmetologist and it sounds very interesting. This may help me learn more about what cosmetologist do and might help me decide if that would be a good career to go into in the future.

I plan to write my research paper on the process and history of hair removal, as well facials, and make-up. I will use books about cosmetology, the internet, and my mentor for information on cosmetology. I also can ask my aunt questions on cosmetology and gain even more information on the subject.

My mentor will be Cami Smith, and she will show me everything she can about cosmetology. She is a licensed cosmetologist. My physical product will be doing a facial and putting make-up on to a mannequin. It will show how the process of make-up is completed. I will spend five hours with my mentor and ten hours on my final project but my mentor will supervise it to make sure I don’t do anything wrong. I will tell of everything we did during that day and how long it took to complete each process. I plan to help document my time with photographs, my time log, and my student log.

I understand that plagiarism is illegal and is the same thing as stealing. If I do not give credit to my sources I understand that I will fail my senior project and my class. This is not a risk I want to take so I will sight my sources and do the original work on my own.
